Answer:

In conclusion, we have:

17 protons

18 electrons

20 neutrons

Explanation:

Hello!

Let's solve this!

The atomic number indicates the number of protons that is equal to the number of electrons.

In this case, the number of protons is equal to 17.

The number of electrons is equal to 17.

To calculate the number of neutrons, we subtract the mass:

37-17 = 20.

Since the mass is equal to the number of neutrons plus that of protons.

In this case, the number of neutrons is 20.

As it has a charge -1, we add one more electron.

In conclusion, we have:

17 protons

18 electrons

20 neutrons

Tresset [83]

Population density is the aspect of population ecology of the black-tailed prairie dog does this statement describe.

Explanation:

Population density is the number of organisms are there in per unit area. It is used to measure geographical area occupied by organisms and its statistics.

In population ecology the structure, dynamics and contribution of population of species is studied. The idea of species distribution is studied in it.

The population density determines the number of species or members of particular population are present is a particular area.

An area of  low density population will have more resources and more area per organism and less competition for resources and vice versa for high density population.

Prairie dogs have 12 adults per hectare of area this tells the population density of the rodents.

Describe ways in which a healthy artery differs from an artery affected by coronary heart disease
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

A healthy artery is wider and has no blockages. The lumen (which is the hole in the centre of the artery), is open and clear. This means there is more blood flow. An artery of a person suffering from coronary heart disease is often blocked, usually by a fatty deposit. This means the blood does not flow as well. (See diagram, in which I would draw two arteries, one with a blockage of fatty deposit, one clear and healthy).
